Donepezil compared with non-drug care for Alzheimer’s
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial compares donepezil (a medicine for Alzheimer’s symptoms) against a non-drug treatment plan. It aims to see which approach helps people with Alzheimer’s who still have measurable thinking ability and specific Alzheimer’s test results.

This study compares different treatment strategies for people newly diagnosed with Alzheimer disease using cholinesterase inhibitor medicines. It may help show which approach works best for mild to moderate Alzheimer symptoms and how well people can stay stable over time.
This trial tests whether donepezil, a medication used in memory disorders, can help women with the restrictive subtype of anorexia nervosa. It may improve symptoms by affecting brain chemicals related to appetite and mood.
This study looks at how well people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) perform on standardized memory/brain tests. It may help researchers understand changes over time, and whether certain types of brain signals or test results track with the condition.
This study tests whether a memory medication called donepezil (Aricept) can help strengthen bones in people with memory problems. If you have mild cognitive impairment or dementia and are not already on a similar medication, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a medication (donepezil) to help people with anorexia nervosa change habits related to eating. The study wants to see if the medicine is safe and can help reduce restrictive eating patterns.
